On every question of construction carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed. — Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson June 12, 1823

Liberal Hijacking of the National Conversation

Bob Ellis

This video of Glenn Beck does some jumping around, but there is one overriding theme: the hijacking of the national conversation by the morally bankrupt Left. Please take the time to watch this, and then ask yourself some tough questions, including: "Have I been taken in by any of this? Have I let them silence me? Have I let them intimidate me from standing up for what is right?" If you don't like the answers you come up with, what are you going to do about it?

American Democrats Versus Fascist Democrats

Woodrow Wilcox

Did you know there are two types of Democrats in America? There are key differences between American Democrats and fascist Democrats. This former elected Democratic Party precinct committeeman, former labor union organizer, and former elected delegate to the Democratic Party state convention of Indiana will tell you what those differences are.

America’s Ruination From Emotions

Jim Bowman

It cannot be stressed enough about the pull of emotion over logic and principles, even to the point of threatening societal order. Today’s Americans seem unable to recognize when they are being played. We all live by rules, regulations and laws which carry accountable punishments. If emotions are left at the courtroom door, how is it that this sentiment continues to be such a major player with regards to our governing? Could there be a reason for its promotion? And if so, is there a cost?

It’s Time to Get Radical…With the Radicals

Bradlee Dean

America, you now have an administration that is clearly at war with our republic, our Mosaic institution and our Christian heritage. They are even willing to go the extra mile and desecrate the sacrifice of those who gave them the privilege to be in a representative, governmental position. America needs to quit talking to these politicians as if they do not know what they are doing; they know exactly what they are doing.

GOP Emulating the New Coke Debacle

Bob Ellis

Back in the mid 1980s, Coke decided the best way to erode Pepsi's market share was to make Coke more like Pepsi. It was a complete disaster. In recent years, the Republican Party has been Hell-bent on creating the same debacle politically by abandoning a winning formula. As Bill Whittle points out, Ronald Reagan ran on the "Old Coke"/conservative formula, and he only won 49 states. No one has run on that unadulterated flavor since...and no one has come close to repeating that success since then.

Big News: A RINO Endorses a RINO

Bob Ellis

I see that the RINO world is all a-twitter that Mike Huckabee has endorsed RINO Mike Rounds for U.S. Senate. Wow, that's big news: a RINO endorses a RINO. Might as well run with the headline: Democrat Endorses Fellow Democrat. Oh, I know Mike Huckabee has been busy the past five years or so, desperately trying to revise history and rehabilitate his liberal record. But some of us know the truth, despite all his conservative-sounding talk.

Time for the SPLC Hate and ‘Hate Group’ Labeling to End

Newswire

The Weekly Standard recently featured an article delving into the background and funding of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), whose donors, according to president Richard Cohen, are “aging Northern-state ‘1960s liberals’ who continue to associate ‘Southern’ and ‘poverty’ with lynchings, white-hooded Klansmen, and sitting at the back of the bus.” Cohen’s description is notable because this thought process has significant influence over how the SPLC creates its infamous “Hate Group” list, which ironically yet devastatingly stimulated the most recent hate crime at The Family Research Council (FRC) last year when an armed man entered FRC with over 50 rounds of ammunition and began shooting.

Homosexual Manifesto: Satire or Reality?

Bradlee Dean

Back in 1987, the Gay Manifesto was published by Michael Swift in the Gay Community News on February 15-21, 1987. It was also interjected into the Congressional Record, showing that Congress is well aware of this content. Recently, Family Research Council released video footage of Floyd Corkins, the homosexual activist who walked into the lobby of the Family Research Council in August 2012 with a semi-automatic pistol and a backpack filled with 100 rounds of ammunition and 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches.

Sick ‘Leader,’ Ailing Nation and Day of Prayer

Gina Miller

Besides the seemingly endless list of outrages coming out of the current administration and Congress, we have a man in the presidency who regularly tells bold, filthy lies, not that other presidents haven’t lied, but this one takes the all-time cake for quantity. His interminable lying is bad enough, but then we have the sorry things he does to disgrace the office he holds. Barack Obama (or whatever his name is) has spit on the office of President of the United States in so many ways, and this past week he added some more.

SPLC Link to Domestic Terrorism

Rick Manning

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has a problem. They are now directly tied to a terrorist act committed by a nut who attacked the Family Research Council because the SPLC listed that group as a “hate group” due to their traditional views on marriage and family. The SPLC makes a living as one of the left’s favorite hate finger pointers, and now due to their over the top rhetoric, they are certified in federal court as being directly responsible for an act of domestic terrorism.

Resisting the Tide of Secularism

Ken Connor

Forces antagonistic to religion dominate our courtrooms, our classrooms, and that most potent platform of public influence, the entertainment industry. Stridently ideological and convinced that the forces of reason and progress are on their side, these secular shapers of culture will not be satisfied until every last vestige of religious influence is exorcised from the public square. These individuals reject the fact that the Christian religion played an integral role in the shaping of America's political traditions and the spirit of liberty and equality that is unique among nations.

The Multi-Agency Attack on Conservatives

Robert Romano

As Sherlock Holmes and Mr. Spock were always fond of noting, when attempting to unravel a whodunit, a useful postulate is: “When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.” Point in case is the targeting by multiple government departments and agencies at the federal and state level, by elected officials, and by Democrat Party organizations of Catherine Engelbrecht, founder of True the Vote, a non-profit organization dedicated to ensuring honest elections and ballot integrity by targeting voter fraud.

Ryan-Rubio ‘Conservative’ Amnesty Ads Insult our Intelligence

Gina Miller

We have not forgotten the 2007 McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill that was killed in the face of intense outrage from the American people. This administration has engaged in criminal conduct by granting amnesty through presidential edict to certain illegal aliens. If we were outraged back in 2007 at the McCain-Kennedy amnesty bill, we are now outraged to the hundredth power at the latest attempt by Congress to shove amnesty for illegal aliens down our throats.

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all." - Ronald Reagan, Nov. 10, 1964
